404 error on downloading file in WP Engine hosting

If you host your website in a WP Engine server you may encounter 404 errors on some type of files. This is because WP Engine uses a proxy with a particular configuration. First of all, if you have changed the default SEO url in the plugin configuration page, please note this value and replace it in the first line of the code we provide in the next lines: (location ~* ^/replace_here_if_you_have_changed_it/* {). Then please contact directly the WP Engine support https://wpengine.com/support/ and provide this information: We use the WP File Download plugin from Joomunited. When this plugin is used under your environment we encounter 404 errors when we try to download files managed by this plugin. This question has already been asked to the WP Engine and you fixed it for other customers according to the following explanation. The WP File Download plugin generates files url that are processed by a php script. For example: /downloads/14/category/11/file.pdf is internally redirected, by the default htaccess rules, to the main index.php file. But as you're serving static files through an Nginx proxy and if the file is not found, the proxy returns a 404 error and the index.php script is never called. In order to fix this 404 error, we need you to add to our site's "Before" rules these lines. location ~* ^/download/* { proxy_pass $dynamic_upstream_read_only; }

Error 404 saat mengunduh file di hosting WP Engine

Jika Anda menghosting situs web Anda di server WP Engine, Anda mungkin mengalami kesalahan 404 pada beberapa jenis file.
Hal ini karena WP Engine menggunakan proxy dengan konfigurasi tertentu.

Pertama-tama, jika Anda telah mengubah URL SEO default di halaman konfigurasi plugin, harap catat nilai ini dan ganti di baris pertama kode yang kami berikan di baris berikutnya: (location ~* ^/replace_here_if_you_have_changed_it/* {).

Kemudian, silakan hubungi langsung dukungan WP Engine di https://wpengine.com/support/ dan berikan informasi berikut:

Kami menggunakan plugin WP File Download dari Joomunited. Saat plugin ini digunakan di lingkungan Anda, kami mengalami kesalahan 404 ketika mencoba mengunduh file yang dikelola oleh plugin ini.

Pertanyaan ini sudah diajukan ke WP Engine dan Anda telah memperbaikinya untuk pelanggan lain sesuai dengan penjelasan berikut.

Plugin WP File Download menghasilkan URL file yang diproses oleh skrip PHP.
Misalnya: /downloads/14/category/11/file.pdf secara internal dialihkan, oleh aturan htaccess default, ke file index.php utama.

Namun karena Anda menyajikan file statis melalui proxy Nginx dan jika file tidak ditemukan, proxy akan mengembalikan kesalahan 404 dan skrip index.php tidak pernah dipanggil.

Untuk memperbaiki kesalahan 404 ini, kami memerlukan Anda untuk menambahkan baris-baris berikut ke aturan "Sebelum" situs kami.

lokasi ~* ^/unduh/* { proxy_pass $dynamic_upstream_read_only; }
